💡 Talk is cheap. / Easier said than done. 說得容易做得難
“Talk is cheap.” It means that it’s easy to say something, but actually doing it is much harder.
Talk is cheap 意為「開空頭支票；隨便說說而已」。這個慣用語於 1800 年代開始使用至今，但確切起源不得而知。
1800 年代流行的成語中有幾個是以 talk is cheap 作開頭，
如 talk is cheap but it takes money to buy a farm、talk is cheap but it takes money to buy whiskey、talk is cheap until you hire a lawyer 等等。
Let’s dive deeper into some related vocabulary and phrases you can use when talking about words and actions.
